Lin Che froze. At first, she thought that Mo Huiling was merely passing by. However, she did not expect Mo Huiling to head straight towards her after catching sight of her.

She obviously came here to see Lin Che.

From time to time, Mo Huiling would see Lin Che on television. She had seen so much news about her and was aware that she was unexpectedly furthering her career. She had turned from a nameless celebrity back then into a famous film star today.

Furthermore, she was actually still together with Gu Jingze.

With her eyes narrowed, Mo Huiling walked towards her.

“Miss Lin, long time no see.”

Lin Che looked at Mo Huiling. She looked a little haggard, but everything else about her was the same. In particular, the look in her eyes was still as revolting as ever.

“What do you want?” Lin Che said rudely.

Mo Huiling sneered and looked at Lin Che. “I have a piece of good news for you.”

“Good news?”

“Yes. Oh, but it may not be good news for you.”

“What exactly are you getting at?” Lin Che thought that she couldn’t possibly be bringing any good news.

“I’m pregnant,” Mo Huiling said.

Lin Che’s eyes wavered.

Mo Huiling said, “I just got pregnant. I’m barely two months into my pregnancy. Don’t you want to know whose child it is?”

Immediately, an ominous feeling rose in Lin Che’s chest. But it was impossible. It was definitely false. Gu Jingze could not have continued to have any contact with her. Lin Che absolutely believed in Gu Jingze.

“The child belongs to Gu Jingze.” A sinister smile appeared on Mo Huiling’s face.

Lin Che’s eyes twitched. “That’s impossible.”

Mo Huiling broke out in laughter. “How is that impossible? I can understand why you don’t believe me. But the child is indeed Jingze’s. Back then, Jingze specially stored his sperm because he was ill and couldn’t touch me. It was to artificially inseminate me in the future if he never recovered from his illness so that I could continue the Gu family bloodline.”

Mo Huiling looked down at her stomach and stroked it. “Right now, the product of the love between me and Jingze is inside. It represents his love for me!”

“…”

After leaving Lin Che’s studio, Mo Huiling immediately called Li Mingyu to tell him that she was back.

She had not felt so at ease for such a long time. She felt extremely invigorated, especially when she saw the devastated expression on Lin Che’s face.

When she met up with Li Mingyu, he had an expression of complete fury on his face. “Why did you go and look for her? I told you a long time ago that the time isn’t right yet. Now is not the right time.”

“Why isn’t the time right?!” Mo Huiling shouted, “I’ve waited for so long before finally having Gu Jingze’s child. I’ve waited too long and couldn’t wait any longer. Hmph. This time, I’ll make Lin Che, the members of the Gu family, and all those people who looked down on me in the past, take a good look. Right now, I’m pregnant with the Gu family’s flesh and blood. This child is the first grandson of the Gu family! The successor to the Gu family.”

However, Li Mingyu could not be bothered with her at all. He snapped her out of her reverie and said, “The child is only two months old. If they make you abort the child, you’ll have no choice but to abort it!”

“How can they possibly make me abort it. This is the Gu family’s flesh and blood, you know?!”

“You…”

“What’s wrong with me? You were the one who readily agreed to help me at the start. You said that you would find out where Gu Jingze stored his sperm, but in the end, you dragged the matter for so long.”

Li Mingyu had not intended to take so long.

His face was gloomy when he remembered this, but he felt so guilty that he did not dare to look at Mo Huiling.

He had initially thought that he could change Mo Huiling’s heart and mind over this period of time so that she would willingly be with him. Who knew that the only thing on Mo Huiling’s mind was Gu Jingze and that all she wanted was to quickly become pregnant with his child?

But how could it be so easy to find out where Gu Jingze stored his sperm? His doctor had kept it so safe to the point where it was impossible for outsiders to know where it was.

In the end, he was left with no choice…

He passed his own sperm off as Gu Jingze’s and gave it to her.

At the time, she had been very excited and immediately arranged for artificial insemination without caring about the fact that she was still a virgin.

Li Mingyu had thought that if she knew that she was pregnant with his own child, it would be difficult to abort the child after some time. Perhaps she would stop thinking about Gu Jingze and get together with him on the child’s account, but who knew…

That she was unable to hold herself back and had actually gone to tell Lin Che. Seriously…

Li Mingyu did not know what he should do now.

At home.

Leaning against the wall, Lin Che mulled over Mo Huiling’s earlier words.

At this moment, Gu Jingze walked in quickly after just finding out about the situation.

Lin Che looked at Gu Jingze and stood up immediately.

Gu Jingze’s expression was ice-cold. He asked, “Did she really say that to you?”

Lin Che said, “It’s alright, it’s alright. Gu Jingze, it’s not your fault. I’ve thought about it. Even if she’s pregnant with your child, it’s not your fault either.”

“No, that’s impossible.” Gu Jingze pulled Lin Che to him. “It’s true that I stored my sperm for future use. But it’s placed in a very safe place that’s impossible for others to reach. It’s in Chen Yucheng’s care and the place where he stored it is not easily accessible by ordinary people. Furthermore, he and I are the only two people who know about this matter. Outsiders can’t find out where it is.”

Hearing him say this, Lin Che was very confused as well. “Then, what exactly is happening…”

Gu Jingze said, “So, I’m absolutely sure that it’s impossible for her to have my child.”

Lin Che frowned. “I… I’m willing to believe you. But why did Mo Huiling say that… she probably knows that you stored your sperm, right?”

“That’s right… I did indeed tell her back then. But I’ve never revealed the location where I stored it.”

“Then, why was she so sure about it?” Lin Che found it very strange.

Gu Jingze narrowed his eyes. “In any case, the child in her womb cannot be mine. But… just for the fact that she came to say these things to you… I’ll definitely make her account for it.”

“Forget it. Even if it was your child, I wouldn’t be that angry either. Although I felt uncomfortable, indeed, she was deliberately playing dirty tricks. I won’t fall for it,” Lin Che said while tugging Gu Jingze to her.

Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che. “You’re right. She’s deliberately playing dirty tricks. But I can’t just watch on as she does that. Anyway, I’ll try to find out what’s going on. Don’t bother with her for the time being.” He pressed his forehead to hers and looked at her. “I don’t want our relationship to be affected by her.”

“Of course…” Lin Che blushed and turned her head away.

After that incident with Lu Chuxia, she now understood that she should take on Gu Jingze’s attitude; as long as they ignored those people, they would not be affected by them.

Lin Che and Gu Jingze were united in heart, so she had nothing to fear regardless of what Mo Huiling did to interfere in their relationship.

She believed that Gu Jingze could handle matters like these.

Gu Jingze said, “Alright. Forget about her. We have to visit the presidential residence today.”

“Huh, we’re going to the Glazed Tile Palace?”

“Yes, Older Brother invited us there. Let’s go. We’ll discuss this matter again with Older Brother when we get there.”
